A case study with Evolve Communities


In a recent webinar hosted by Evolve Communities, the topic of "How to be an Ally on Australia Day" dived into the challenging and divisive aspects surrounding January 26th. Aunty Munya AndrewsCarla Rogers, and Kate Kelleher led an insightful discussion, inviting participants to explore the origins of Australia Day and its impact on First Nations peoples. The session aimed to engage those curious, concerned, and committed to creating a kinder, more inclusive Australia.

"Big esso (thank you in Torres Strait Creole) to the deadly ✨ Indi Tansey for joining our Survival Day Webinar last week as our visual storyteller." – Aunty Munya 

Challenges and Importance of Visual Storytelling: Addressing the complexities and sensitivities of Australia's history, the webinar required a respectful conversation. Emotions run high on this divisive topic, making it helpful to have a visual storyteller. Indi Dust's live scribing became a powerful tool to navigate the intricacies, offering a map of understanding from historical origins to the challenges faced by First Nations people and guidance on being an ally.

During the webinar, visual storytelling played a pivotal role in conveying messages. Indi crafted a visual pathway through the canvas, addressing challenges such as the labelling of opposition to 'Australia Day' as 'woke.' The engaging and inclusive approach was warmly received, with the post-event summary timelapse garnering hundreds of views and positive feedback on social media.

"You captured the yarn so wonderfully." – Angie Perkins

Envisioning future use and value: Indi Dust sees visual storytelling as a medium to unravel nuanced narratives, fostering understanding and dialogue around challenging topics. The unique opportunity to explore and learn through visuals creates a shared canvas, offering a powerful avenue for meaningful discussions.


Takeaway for organisations and individuals: For those considering visual storytelling for events with sensitive topics, the Evolve Communities webinar serves as a great example. Visual representation, as demonstrated by Indi Dust, becomes a respectful map, fostering understanding and creating a shared canvas for meaningful dialogue—a transformative approach to navigating complex and sensitive discussions.

"Thank you Indi for your wonderful graphic at Evolve Communities webinar today. You captured the essence of the conversation perfectly." – Melody Edwardson

A core belief at Indi Dust is that through Visual Storytelling, we humanise strategies, not only conveying objectives but also the values behind them. This fosters a deeper connection with stakeholders, bringing your strategy to life. It's not just about conveying information; it's about creating an emotional connection that lasts.

Meet Indi Dust, the creative force guiding strategic workshops towards transformation. Invited to numerous leadership sessions, Indi serves as the artistic compass, navigating the turbulent waters of change with strategic flair.


Visual Storytelling is part process (capturing the workshop) and part product (visual storyboards).


It's a blend of artistry, deep listening, and strategic communication that sets Indi apart. Take, for instance, a recent 2-day leadership retreat for Rio Tinto. Indi digitally captured the essence of discussions, translating abstract ideas into tangible visuals. These vibrant storyboards guided the group towards a shared vision, transforming concepts into actionable plans.

“Indi was truly the magic dust that brought our strategy workshop sessions to life!  Her superpower is to rapidly grasp complex information and convert it in real time to visuals that captivate, educate and motivate.”  Alan Ng, Independent consultant and lead facilitator.

Visual Storytelling can engage teams, align collective vision and ignite actionable initiatives.


Similarly, at a senior technology leaders workshop for The Lottery Corporation, Indi simplified complex concepts through live visual storytelling. The result? A more engaged team and a clearer path forward.

"Indi's visual narratives served as reminders of our achievements, facilitated idea validation, and fostered engagement with our community, even for those unable to attend." Danielle Storey, Senior Manager & Event Facilitator, The Lottery Corporation
